I'm not mad about movies, there are too many people involved in the making of them, and they lack a definitive creative focus.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The motivation for making movies is that people actually see them.
People have a different idea of how movies are made than they really are.
I prefer to make a film that people have a really intense reaction to than have a film that people feel ambivalent about.
I think the problem I have with films is that, because there's so much hype around them, they become bigger than they should be, really. There are things that people do every day in their little workshops that they'll take to heaven with them. You've got to realise that it's not everything, making films.
I feel like everyone wants to make a movie that they feel passionate about watching.
You can't make a movie about making movies - it's boring.
I think that people should really understand what it takes to make a film.
I think I'm a very sentimental person. Conscious or not, that's what draws me to the kind of films I want to make.
There is no sense in making a film that no-one will go and see, just to create a perfect, but useless, work of art.
What's great about making movies is the sort of additive process of bringing people together and having an idea and watching the idea be added to and at the end you have this thing.
